More sunshine could only result in more happiness, and being a Sunday only helped. In what could easily be dubbed as the best weekend, weather-wise, since back in September.
Hopefully, the fine weather shall continue as predicted for a couple more days; it'd definetely be a different Monday.
Talking of different, I don't usually talk about my own football results but in our match this morning, we actually managed to score three goals in quick succession. Now I'm used to a side that defends well but never scores, so this was a surprise for me; sadly, the other side seemed to give up after about three or four goals and we just slotted them in willy nilly. At half time, everyone voted to call it 3-0 and go home; 45 minutes seems like a very long time when it's a dull game...
There was a film on tonight but I didn't fancy it, so I went along to the crap quiz instead, despite the fact I thought I'd never go back again. Again, this probably doesn't warrant a mention, but on the way back a girl ran past us at full speed in pyjama bottoms then fell over hard on the floor; seemingly unconscious. I ran up to her and she was breathing but clearly in a heavy daze, if not knocked out, so I got the person I was with to go and fetch the porter whilst I stuck her into the recovery position. Whilst the porter was being fetched, she suddenly snapped out of it with a sharp breath and said "No, don't get the porter, he hates me, I've only grazed my knee..."
She then proceeded to bolt for the hills, faster than I think she could take, probably why she fell over in the first place. As it happens, she'd already been to the porter, and seemed to faint there too; I don't know what the hell was going on, but I bumped into a guy who was trying to track her down, he said she was on medication and had been drinking, a fatal mix. At first, I thought she'd faked unconsciousness, but I suppose the alcohol and medication could have caused sudden fainting...
It's a stroke of luck we were on site, anywhere else and I'd have called an ambulance; I didn't in this case because they get stuck at the gate not knowing where to go when they arrive at the university. Don't know why I typed all this up, but I guess it's a story to tell; however sad, or maybe even incomplete, it may be. I do wonder where she ran to though, couldn't have got far but judging by the way she stared at me, she could have run off into the woods for all I know.
Anyway, I hope it all got sorted out, but I need to go to bed, early start with grammar tomorrow; lovely.
So here I am, The Birks at last; smack bang in the middle of a lake district valley, this is easily one of the nicest areas in Europe.
